Andrew and Katie will talk about the scope for socially conscious gaming in the escape room industry. The pair will explain their motivations and the lessons learned from creating The Divide, a game focussing on the social divide and the inequalities in society. They will then go on to discuss other examples of meaningful topics can be explored through the medium of escape rooms, with a particular look at puzzle design in these scenarios.
